Post what u eat on this log.

I'm actually reworking my diet today. Trying to cut my carbs down to about 200g, and drop the total calories to 3000... I feel like my body fat has gone up significantly in the past 2 week.

I plan to hit just barely over my maintenance calories, and about 300-400g protein. Hopefully that will allow significant muscle growth and fat loss.

Ill post it up soon as i'm done

i'm trying to figure out how many grams of carbs i need.. i know carbohydrates are important for the digestion of proteins... but how much is enough i wonder? i'd really like to get to about 9 - 10% body fat after this is all said and done with.


anybody heard about pixie sticks being the perfect carb to eat after consuming protein? i read that it doesnt need to be digested it absorbs into the blood stream immediately upon entering your system... weird

i would get on N2guard to help with the pumps and the high blood pressure which is leading to your insomnia.

don't mess around with Tylenol or other drugs like that.. if something is wrong correct it, don't make the problem worse by taking more and more shit to cover up problems

you could even consider dropping your dose down to 250 a week instead or even 375 since you are having trouble with sides

learn to listen to your body.. there are guys who have been lifting for decades who still haven't figured that out yet, and those are the guys who you hear about on the forums who are now diabetics, crippled, or have chronic problems due to ignoring the bodies signals that something is wrong

also before bed is a good time to do 30 minutes of stretching and relaxation. and i would pick up some sleepytime tea which will help relax you.. and of course a hot bath before bed is great to calm down your muscles and relax them

I suggested 250wk from the beginning as it would accomplish the same results. As Steve said tylenol is awful. It's really really bad for your liver. Ibuprofen is awful for your kidneys.

Something I'm notorious for freaking out on people for is something you need to do.....something very responsible ....go get yourself a BP monitor. Go to the drug store and get a wrist unit. Nice ones are like $30. Take your bp in the a.m. before getting out of bed. Take it at night after relaxing for 30 min so you get a true resting bp. Don't take it after the gym or walking back from the kitchen ect... Take.it 3 times in a row each time to get an average.

shoulda gone with 250wk from the beginning.. i still had the mentality of bigger is better though.. is it too late for me to drop down like steve said?

aren't these sides going to diminish as my levels stabalize? i figured this was all because of my stupid front load :/

i actually have a bp moniter, i'll start using that. good call, thanks.

also i heard GNC offers BF readings, do you think these guys would be acurate at all? it costs like $2 i think

I doubt the bf reading would be accurate at all. The front load didn't help your bp. It's absolutely not too late to drop to 250. It will take about 3 weeks for everything to stabilize.
